Key quotes
I have directed @SecretarySonny (House Secretary Sonny Perdue) to expedite help to our farmers, especially to the smaller farmers who are hurting right now. I expect Secretary Purdue to use all of the funds and authorities at his disposal to make sure that our food supply is stable, strong, and safe.
We will always be there for our Great Farmers, Cattlemen, Ranchers, and Producers!
